Oh for God's sake...
Talk about an American lack of irony....
Craig was joking.
He has joked about a gay Bond before on British chat shows and a few interviews,even the stuffy old BBC 'Radio Times' (a famous TV/radio magazine here). He recently joked that he will shave off all body hair and play a double part in the next film as Blofeld as well as Bond,joking he would keep the then needed toupee for Bond as a memento.
Follow this story and you quickly find that it starts with a Canadian gossip website quoting the ubiquitous ' a movie insider'...hmmm....
Perhaps it was/is the dry British humour,but by god aint you lot been suckered....
Richard Burton,Peter O Toole,Ollie Reed and other usually British actors used and still do this type of dry joke to break the monotony of round robin interviews(Craig is STILL promoting CR and will be into January).
Burton used to joke he was Jewish(because of Liz's marriage to Mike Todd) or that his poor Welsh family used to live 'on a dollar a day'(which despite the dollar faut pas,was actually printed by American reporters as true in the 60's) .
A lot of folk here getting het up over a joke.
Slow news day.Non story.Nothing to see.Move along now...
faux pas,not faut pas.
Apologies for my dodgy French.
